    mtx engine

    Old engines IE Nytro have a valve cover gasket that has 4 "D" shaped rubber plugs that fill voids in the top of the head. On the newer engine the "D" shaped parts are molded into the valve cover and the gasket remains the same thickness simply following the outline of the curved portion of...

    153 to 156 track swap

    I am doing the same swap this weekend and have a "Freedom" axle from Mountain Machines which allows you to use 9" wheels on the rear. This should take up about 1.5". I'll repost when it's done.

    BENT/TWISTED FRONT SUB FRAME

    What he said. These sub-frames are fixable, we've done 2 in our shop. Be careful how much strengthening you do. The a-arms are very strong and if the sub-frame is also very strong then any impact force will simply be transmitted farther back to the engine bulkhead which is not fixable and...

    Another front end out of whack?sub frame?spindles?a-arms?

    What is bent is the internal sub-frame assembly or front clip. It is constructed in a "cage" type design and the lower rear portion of the cage moves either left or right when a sufficient force is applied to either spindle. With the phazer this sub-frame or front clip is a single piece of...

    Joining the FXNYTRO club....WOOO

    You're missing the $500 yamabucks and the $900 cash off from Yamaha ( this program came out about 2 weeks ago), as well as the 2 year warranty. You are also quoting a specific deal, I am quoting MSRP US vs. MSRP Can. Whatever deal you can work with a dealer in terms of discount or service...

    Joining the FXNYTRO club....WOOO

    Did you even give a Canadian dealer a shot at your new sled? With $500 yamabucks, $900 instant rebate, no $200 import fee, 2 years of warranty, no 6.5% import duty ( depending on who you get at the border) The savings is at most $1400 ( assuming no import duty and zero warranty). If you...

    ON the Way!

    There seems to be some confusion on the 6.1% duty. After two phone calls to different border crossings the duty is applicable according to the customs individuals I spoke with.

    ON the Way!

    Canadians owe it to their dealer to at least give him a shot. The numbers are much closer than you are being told. Nytro Mtx 13,699 CAN MSRP -700 Rebate -500 Yamabucks -1000 Value for 2 Yr Warranty 11,499...

    Track ratchets with extroverts….

    We've had a few ratcheting issues with 3" pitch maverick tracks and turbo's. You will get one extra tooth on the track if you switch to a 2.52 pitch. If your drivers are damaged because of the ratcheting go with AVID machined drivers as they are considerably more durable than the cast style...

    Help, Vector with MCX dies after 15 sec at WOT??????

    Just got back from our second ride with this set up. I realize there will be some fooling to get it right but this problem just about cost me the sled. Going back into the big stuff there were a few short chutes which were no problem at all. Then we got to a long steep climb with some rocks...

    Vector jetting with MCX system

    MCX install in a Vector

    I'm just getting ready to install an MCX rear mount kit in my vector and was wondering if anyone had any tips or tricks that may not be covered in the instructions. The sled is mostly stripped, the motor is still in it. For guys who have installed this kit. Are the instructions fairly clear...

    151 to 159 on Vector Turbo ???

    I've got a Vector with an MCX turbo currently being installed. I have a 159x16x2.3 track on the way with extroverts and a CBS extension. Is there a significant advantage to sliding the skid frame back or should I use extensions on the rails. If I slide the suspension back are there any...

    track swap for a vector turbo?

    I have vector mountain and a rear mount turbo waiting to go in. I am considering a track swap or, at the very least cut the windows and install extroverts. If I swap out the track I am leaning towards a 159x16x2. How hard is the bracket relocation if I slide the skid frame back rather than...
